DOD Before 1864 based on Margaret Dick's marriage to Alexander Fowler in 1864. This of course in Uncertain.

Robertson, and Margaret's (Robertson Dick Alexander) mother, Margaret Fowler are both mentioned in Margaret Dick Robertson Alexander's Death Certificate. It is apparent Margaret was an illegitimate daughter of Margaret Dick Fowler form daughter's Birth Certificate; and her daughter took Robertson's name later. Whether Robertson was actually her biological father is not clear. Possibly he married Margaret Dick after their daughter was born, but there isn't at present any Sources proving one way or another. Margaret Dick later married Alexander Fowler in 1864.
